Rotating Tweets not rotating (sorry for another question about this!)

Hi,

First, thank you for the great plugin! I’ve read around the support forum and documentation provided and I have managed to adjust the plugin/shortcode a bit but i cannot get the rotation of tweets to display. I’ve set the shortcode to pull from a list i’ve created but it only displays one tweet at a time until the page is refreshed and it’ll only change if there’s been a new tweet in that list. What i would like to do is have the rotating tweets rotate and display recent tweets, like the last seven or so but i can’t get it to work. There was a different twitter recent widget/code set up but it broke after the Twitter 1.1 API update. Below is our website and code that I’m using to display the widget:

<?php echo do_shortcode(“[rotatingtweets screen_name=’theabpn’ list=’abpn-members’ include_rts=1 exclude_replies=0 tweet_count=8 official_format=1 timeout=4000 rotation_type=ScrollLeft]”); ?>

Thanks!

Does putting inverted commas in work better? As per:
```
<?php echo do_shortcode("[rotatingtweets screen_name='theabpn' list='abpn-members' include_rts='1' exclude_replies='0' tweet_count='8' official_format='1' timeout='4000' rotation_type='scrollLeft']"); ?>
```

Thanks for the quick reply, Martin! Unfortunately, the inverted commas didn’t either. This is all new to me so i’m not sure what it could be.

There’s a clash with the template’s own (extremely complicated) installations of JavaScript including a broken script on line 186 of custom.js.

What happens if you change to version 2 of the script on the Rotating Tweets settings page?

I figured it would be something with this (based on some others you’ve helped). We had a developer set things up, including the various JS as well as that custom.js but they have been done working on this site for a bit now so we’re on our own.

Changing to version 2 of the script on the Rotating Tweets settings page has no effect on the rotating.

Is there a way you recommend i isolate/fix the JavaScript script issue?

I would try commenting out the Twitter bit of custom.js since you’re not using it any more:
```
/*
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-citi").miniTwitter({
Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'miniTwitter'
		  username:"citi",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-CFEDNews").miniTwitter({
		  username:"CFEDNews",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-capacd").miniTwitter({
		  username:"capacd",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-civilrightsorg").miniTwitter({
		  username:"civilrightsorg",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-nalcab").miniTwitter({
		  username:"nalcab",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-naturbanleague").miniTwitter({
		  username:"naturbanleague",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-nclr").miniTwitter({
		  username:"nclr",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});
		$(".recent_twiiter_widget .twitter-policylink").miniTwitter({
		  username:"policylink",limit:1,
		  retweet:true
		});

		$(".recent_twiiter_widget ul").cycle({ timeout: 5000,fx: 'scrollHorz'});
*/
```
